1. Which chapter in World History did you enjoy most this year and why? The chapter I chose is chapter 9. I chose chapter 9 because. I always liked Ancient Greece when we got on chapter 9 I was excited to learn more about Ancient Greece. In lesson 1 we talk about the geography of Greece. For example Greece didn’t depend on the river to flood because there weren’t any rivers that could be flood. In lesion 2 we talked about the Greek city- states and there myths and legends. In lesson 3 we talk about the golden age Athens and how the Athens clashed with the Persians. And in lesson 4 we talk about Alexander the great and how he conquered lands.
2. Describe some of the things that you learned in that chapter. Is there a project that you completed that you enjoyed working on? The things I learned was that The Greeks did the first Olympic Games. The Olympic Games is when boxers, wrestlers, runners and other athletes came form all par of Greece to compete in the Olympics. Another thing I learned was the Golden Age. The golden age was a time when the Athens builds magnificent new temples. Artists created statues and monuments of breathtaking beauty.

3. What new skills have you learned throughout the year? The skills that learn were that. I learned more confidants and responsibility. I also learned history and facts as well.


4. How can you apply this knowledge to the real world? I can apply this knowledge by. Opening a museum about Ancient Greece and tell facts about there life, culture, what they did and how they service as well. Another thing I might do is a big presentation about the Ancient Greece about the Trojan War. And that’s why I picked this chapter for my reflection.
